Numbers for the week in class 025: This week, there were 903 freshly registered text trademarks (of which 463 had owners in China, and 440 had owners in all other non-China countries combined); 99 fully cancelled text marks; and 71 applications were abandoned before reaching the finish line.
Note: The marks in part 1 are now fully registered and active! This list is compiled from the USPTO Trademark Search system. Some of these are legitimate brand names! I’ve included them on this list because those brand names are also words or phrases that may be used on the goods in question by crafters and makers.
PART 1: NEW REGISTRATIONS (PRINCIPAL REGISTER)

| 98197326 | BASE COTTON | |
| 97924404 | BELIEVE IN YOUR SPOUSE | I do, I do! In case you didn’t know, he’s a humorous sci-fi/fantasy novelist. And I think he’s great! |
| 98001626 | BLUE COLLAR LIVIN | |

| 98867787 | CLASSIC COWBOY | It’s a collection of baseball caps, which doesn’t feel very “cowboy” to me! |
| 97876169 | COOL COOL COOL | A music act, here’s “Never Noticed“. |
| 98899250 | CUPCAKE MONSTER | I really hoped the monster WAS a cupcake, but no. It’s some purple Cookie Monster wannabe. |
| 98857169 | DAUGHTER QUEEN | Ah, weird marks from China. They changed the images and brand on this Amazon listing, but didn’t change the title. Oops! |
| 98908385 | DEAD MEAT | Is “dead meat” a tautology? Isn’t meat, by its very definition, dead? |
| 98597145 | DELAWARE BEACHES SUCK! | They’re just saying that, to keep the tourists away. |
| 98272773 | DELTA ALPHA DELTA | Owner is an individual. It’s just a way to say DAD. (Or, well, technically ΔAΔ.) |

| 97177824 | INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE | Owner is AMC, this is related to the TV show. |
| 98899244 | IT’S EASY TO BE KIND | But it’s equally easy to be a snarky hag. |

| 98907955 | MERRYISH | Owner in China, crappy specimens. All the classics. |

| 98845304 | NOT MY CHURCH NOT MY MINISTRY MINDING MY BUSINESS 24:7 | A religious version of “not my circus, not my monkeys”? (Also: 69 pages of specimens? Nice, but a little excessive.) |

| 98589658 | VALIDATED | |
| 79378724 | TOMATO | You can, of course, still use this word in designs! (The list of goods for this one is faaaaascinating.) |
| 97980476 | WHAT’S YOUR BEST EVER? | For me, definitely 240. (Yes, that’s vague as hell.) |

[sic] = A spelling, spacing, grammar, or punctuation error is part of the mark, not a typo from my butterfingers.
[removed from spreadsheet] = The cancelled item had been on my spreadsheet of marks, and has now been removed.
Note: This is a curated list, and may not include all marks that affect you or your business. All opinions expressed in the snark are my own. All snark is intended for entertainment purposes.
As always, the new marks have been added to my ginormous spreadsheet; please check it out for a shockingly large list of registered trademarks!
